New Releases for January 19!

3DBLU = Available for rent on lovely 3D Blu-ray, though you must have a 3D TV to experience the full glory

@ = Available for sale in the store (but we can special order anything, see us for details)

First up, the Heroes from the Criterion Collection have brought us INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS (@BLU), one of the very best films of the last few years, and the first of the Coen Brothers’ many masterpieces to make it onto the Criterion label! Now’s your chance to see Poe Dameron and Kylo Ren at their first meeting, way back in the 1960’s! Not sure who the guy in the orange sweater is though.

Then we’ve got another great music-based film out this week, STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON (BLU), the story of the groundbreaking and notorious NWA. This movie was ridiculously snubbed at the Oscars this year, in our not so humble opinion.

As for the rest, don’t forget to check out the following: Criterion also has classic noir and quintessential Rita Hayworth film GILDA (@BLU). EVEREST (BLU 3D) tells the true story of a deadly mission to the tallest peak. DIARY OF A TEENAGE GIRL (BLU) is one of the best indie films of 2015. Early, hot Richard Gere in Paul Schrader’s AMERICAN GIGOLO (@BLU). Long-thought-lost silent classic THE UNDESIRABLE (@BLU) has been rediscovered. LET THERE BE LIGHT (@BLU) is a collection of John Huston’s wartime documentaries. Anne Hathaway is Robert De Niro’s boss in THE INTERN (BLU). 80’s nostalgia blast JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS (BLU) gets a modern adaptation. Check out the other side of “Hamlet” in Tom Stoppard’s ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD (@BLU). Scary stuff: LUTHER THE GEEK (@BLU) has bitten off more chicken heads than Ozzy Osbourne, and did you know William Friedkin made a movie called THE GUARDIAN (@BLU) about a baby-stealing tree? Last but not least, Marceline gets her own mini-series in ADVENTURE TIME: STAKES! (@)
